So I have a new J batch x5960, at 1.3vcore I'm getting a fairly stable 4.8 GHz (40x ucore), all Cstates disabled, speed step disabled etc5311953120

Need some help with the Digi Settings and voltages, pics attached

CPU Core: 1.3 (even posts at a multi of 50, but she errors out with Watchdog or WHEA other wise 48 I can play games run 3dmark etc)
Cache: 1.275 (I don't even think I need it this high but left auto she goes to 1.35)
System Agent 1.2 (raising this to 1.25 or 1.3 has no stability effect, actually increasing makes it less stable)

Ram is running at 3200GHZ

Any help would be appreciated

Dude ... if yer getting 4.8 at pretty much LOW end settings consider yerself golden. From what I see yer in shots I'd buy that chip tomorrow IF I knew it could do that before opening a box as long as it's stable.

What are you cooling it with?

The key will be getting yer cache up to 45+ if you can which WILL require added voltage on that side of things. I can run 4.7-1.375v and 4.5-1.4v on my system with 2x360, 1x240-55mm of rad space and not exceed 83c in a Aidia64 stress test.

SA is a sensitive voltage. Too much or too little can affect stability.

If you want your gem to last, it would be wise to lower that 1.5V for SA.

Any other suggestions?
